Pros

Some of the people (NOT UPPER MANAGEMENT) are great to work with

Cons

The list is so long, I would run out of room listing it all. Others have said it very well as to what the environment is really like. Be prepared to: Be Harassed by Upper Management. There is no HR person with any knowledge, so whatever they want to say or do is on the table at any time. Be asked to work many hours without getting anything for it. It is forgotten when you work extra hours, but not when you need to leave early for an appointment. You will be told you will be docked in that situation. Watched constantly to make sure you are at your desk by 9:00am and do not leave before 5:00pm. Told whatever you do is not good enough and that you should be doing it better. A sign of a good company is that they can handle change well. ChannelNet does not have that capability due to the CEO. You will be asked to drop billable work in order to handle a request from the CEO, then questioned why your billable hours are so low.

Pros

This is a company that is very entrepreneurial and fast moving where your contributions are noticed, appreciated and rewarded. It's a great mix of disciplines: creative, UX, development, etc. and hires some really solid people that care about their work product, and each other. I can't say enough good things about the people. I consider everyone here a personal friend. Incredible, challenging environment with great opportunity for personal and professional growth. Fun and friendly management for the most part. Strong female representation in management. The CEO is a hard-charging digital pioneer. Head of Ops, another female, keeps the place together and is always accessible and available to help clear obstacles or just hear you out. Overall great work/life balance compared to just about everywhere I have worked!

Cons

The company has experienced rapid growth and some of the issues that come with that...thus, some of the disgruntled formers you see on here (some people are apparently just born angry and disgruntled). Overall these issues have been balanced out in the time I've been here and some of the people that can't cut it are no longer there. We gotta keep being selective about the types of personalities we hire!
